Chevron or Stripes?

I received 2 wing back chairs (for free!!) and I am sending them off to the upholsterer to be recovered. I keep going back and forth trying to decide on a fabric for them. Do you like the large scale chevron or is it too trendy and will go out of style quickly?

Or do I go with a classic black and white cabana stripe, in outdoor fabric, that is easy to clean if the kids spill on the chairs??? I can't decide, I really love both options, but would love to hear from you!!!

I vote for the stripes. More classic, not so busy, less likely to look dated, and a lot easier for the upholsterer to match the pattern between the cushion and chair shell, which I see they did in both your examples, which is the hallmark of a good job. And with kids and pets, bomb-proof is ALWAYS better.Sue in RI

A true Aquarius and creative spirit at heart, interior design, fashion, lifestyle, and music are my influences. My life revolves around my 2 passions: Business and Art. I'm a little preppy and a little bohemian, laced with a touch of glamour. I love a cup of French pressed coffee, art and design books, travels along the Mediterranean, bubbly champagne, fiercely creative people and those with good energy, intense conversations, daydreaming, and good old-fashioned love in every form it manifests itself. Step inside and stay awhile...
